Licenses belong in /Library/Application Support (no squiggle),
IMO. Plugins too, probably. But templates, yes, although
perhaps they might be stored in /Library/Application Support at
the user's option ('make this template available to all users of
this Macintosh').
Depending on what you want to do, take care when running user a
restricted account! Got bitten by that one. We now set a few
permissions bits in the installer for our own, specific,
reasons.
What sort of data is it, anyway?

Subject: Re: Guidance on use of Application Support folder
It seems to me that it is telling you not to save user documents
there. Templates, user-installed plugins, licenses, and all
sorts of
other stuff goes (and belongs) in Application Support. The app
binary,
its required frameworks, its resources, etc. do not.
